The highly efficient hydraulic Sub-Boost pump is driven by a market leading diesel engine to pump water at a rate of 6000 GPM (22,710 Lpm). The use of our hydraulically driven submersible pump aids the mechanically driven pump by creating positive pressure, thus increasing efficiency of the system. Both the hydraulic pumps and the boost pump are driven by a single diesel engine using an industrial PTO drive.
In either configuration, the water can be fed into large volume firefighting monitors such as the US Fire Pump Sentry 9© trailer mounted monitor, or sent over a long distance hose relay, substantially increasing the logistical efficiency at incident sites. The submersible unit is compact and easy to deploy. The self-contained pumping system can be built on a base skid, a hook lift skid, or a trailer for easy transportation. A large integrated fuel tank can hold enough fuel to run the pump for up to 8 hours. Firefighting experience and commitment to reliability are incorporated into the design of the control system.
All US Fire Pump Submersible Pumps and submersible/boost combination units provide a user-friendly, water resistant control panel as a primary interface. Advanced sensors, redundant control mechanisms, and emergency shut-down switches are integrated for safe and easy operation. The standalone submersible pump is ideal if you already have a US Fire Pump draft/boost pump. Weighing only 300 lbs. (136 kg), the floating unit is equipped with ergonomically designed carry poles which allow two or four operators to carry the pump unit into hard to reach locations. The combo pump provides unparalleled pumping and boosting capabilities in one transportable package.
